Computer Science And Computing

As computers have infiltrated virtually every facet of our lives, so has computer science influenced nearly every academic subject in science, engineering, medicine, social science, the arts and humanities. Michael Knee offers a selective guide to the major resources and tools central to the entire industry. A discussion of three commonly used subject classification systems precedes an annotated bibliography of over 500 items.

Michael Knee has held the position of Science Bibliographer and Reference Librarian at the University at Albany, SUNY, since 1981.
